I've got nothing against American cars. There are as many import POS's driving around as "american" ones. But most people get an "american" dud, and go on and on about how the company sucks and they'll never buy from them again. They get an "import" dud and suddenly its a lemon. They just got a bad car, and will gladly go back to them.
Me, and my family, have had great cars...both domestic and imported. Worst american we had was a Dodge Grand Caravan (1990). While the car fell apart around us, the engine, suspension and everything else was bulletproof. Smoothest shifting transmission i've ever felt. Got rid of itt at 200k miles. Jeeps at 253k, Blazer at 185k. Just rock solid cars. Grandfathers always bought toyota and had nothing but good times with them. Brother drives and loved his Mazda. Only difference i see between them, as far as build quality, is whos name is on it. They all hold up really well.
Recently we did buy a car. Ended up buying a Mazda van. Not because of build quality, reliability or anything else. Chevy would have been as good as Acura as far as we were concerned, but Mazda was the only van that had what we wanted, and did it for much cheaper than anyone else could have. We looked up reviews on a car by car basis and did research. I think its rediculous to assume one car is better than another just because of who got to stick their name on it.
